Tittle says it all. I am playing US and I am wondering which is better: 9.0 or 9.3? My 9.0 lineup would probably look like this:
M3 Bradley
XM803
M60A3 TTS
M247
Imp. Chaparral
F3H-2 ?
and my 9.3 lineup:
M3 Bradley
XM803
MBT-70
M60A3TTS
Imp. Chaparral or M247
A-4E
Mostly I just want to grind out 10.3 as quickly and efficiently as possible with the best lineup possible.
9.3
use the M247 over the chap any day
9.3 is a bit more pain but worth it
ok, Thanks
I’d go with 9.0 personally. All you’re getting at 9.3 is the MBT-70 which while great isn’t as good as the German one. But then of course you’re unnecessarily uptiering the TTS as well as the York and XM803.
the 20mm and mobility is nice to have tho
you can barrel and track them pretty quick + you can run away faster than they can forward
take my opinion with a grain of salt as I’m only 8.7 in russia, but when I play 10.3 with the t 80 ud and my caked up bmp, I always see mbt 70s. they always somehow get unavoidably uptiered to 10.3. id say stay at 9.0 to be spared from the great uptier.
Stay at 9.0. 9.3 is an uptierfest which is hell to deal with when using the MBT-70.
Just that it has a slightly worse engine, less smoke grenade pops, and a much worse reload (7.5s reload instead of 6.0s reload) compared to the Kpz-70.
MBT-70 is one of the worst MBTs at 9.3, whereas the KPZ-70 is one of the best.
You have a crappy round with either, but you can’t out-reload anything with the MBT-70, but you can out-reload basically everything with the KPZ-70.
thats mbt-70 for you
granted the mbt-70 was also planned to have 6 seconds reload but due to the autoloader being troublesome they move to a different autoloader that load slower but reliable
it should get a buff really
the replacement autoloader was able to load 7-9 round a min and stable 6-8 round a min
they should buff the reload to like 7 seconds or 6.75 seconds
Or it should stay as it is and be moved down to 9.0…
or move the KPZ-70 to 9.7.
we need decompression
I’d go with 9.0 because MBT-70 isn’t worth being uptiered to 10.3
I use XM803, M60A3 TTS, M247 and F-84F for 9.0, i really enjoyed it and got few nukes with it
XM803 is fast, has good APFSDS with great turret traverse, fuel tank manages to eat DM13 and turret sometimes bounces the shots while its frontaly immune to 30mm APDS
USA 9.3 barely made a line up there, why don’t gaijing just put the Merkavas in the tech tree and make that two xm-1 variants available to everyone? Given the fact that Israel can shit out more MBTs at 9.3 than two nations combined lol
And japan tech tree is just
Type 74 Prototype
Type 74 Early
Type 74 Early but Red
Type 74 Enhance
Type 74 Final
Type 74 Extended
Thanks for the replies! Will keep the suggestions in mind.
play mbt-70
its reliable in top tier also(ive tried)
also they both have adjustable hydropneumatic suspension so you can get more depression or low profile
If the Super M60 was added to 9.3 that would help a lot. Might be a stretch though, however given that it is basically the tech and gun of the M60A3 TTS on a new platform there might be a chance.
